Tornado is the new chiller Coltri Compressors, designed and engineered in collaboration with one of the leading companies in the industry to be perfectly integrated on our compressors. Not only that, we designed it to be easy to use. Extend the life of your charging station by using Tornado!

How a chiller works

The general operating cycle is very similar to that of a refrigerator: the idea is to lower the temperature of pressurized air. Why do this? The purpose is to make the air reach the dew point so that the moisture inside the pressure loop condenses.

Condensation? Dew point? Condensation is nothing more than the transition of moisture from the gaseous to the liquid state: this allows moisture to be discharged before it reaches the filters. The dew point, on the other hand, is the temperature to which the air must be brought for the water vapor present to condense, without a change in pressure. This is exactly the natural phenomenon by which dew is created on our lawn at night (or frost in winter!).

The results

Filter life is greatly extended by removing condensate before it reaches the cartridges and we obtain higher quality air.

The advantage is also considerable from a strictly economic point of view: it does not take long to amortize the cost of our chiller, especially when working in hot environments. The reduced consumption of Coltri cartridges (the only ones able to comply with the limit values of harmful substances set by the standard on respirable air DIN EN 12021 on our compressors) generates guaranteed savings over time, especially when combined with a lower workload of the compressor (thus lighter routine maintenance!).

Do you want even more from your Coltri? You can combine the use of Tornado with PRESEC filter monitoring or the MULTIGAS gas measurement system. Doing so makes it easy to optimize residual moisture values, ensuring even more economical operation of the machine: in fact, it allows you to change the cartridge once full saturation is reached and not before.
Less cartridges used, more savings, more quality.
